Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the tritium inserts continue to glow?
Tritium is a mildly radioactive gas that produces a constant glow through a process called radioluminescence. TruGlo tritium inserts have an industry-standard half-life of approximately 12 years, meaning brightness will gradually diminish over time but will remain functional for well over a decade of regular use under normal conditions.
Are these sights a direct drop-in replacement for the Springfield XD's factory sights?
Yes, the TruGlo Brite-Site Tritium sights are designed as a direct replacement for the standard factory sights on the Springfield XD series. Installation typically requires a sight pusher tool or a qualified gunsmith to properly seat the rear sight — professional installation is recommended to ensure proper zero and a secure fit.
Do tritium night sights need to be "charged" with a flashlight before use?
No — that is one of the key advantages of tritium over photoluminescent (glow-in-the-dark) sights. Tritium glows continuously on its own, 24 hours a day, regardless of prior light exposure. You can store your firearm in a dark safe for weeks and the sights will still be glowing brightly when you need them.
